Its the final countdown

Okay, I couldn’t resist the obvious musically inspired title for this post but at least give me credit for sparing you the video of 80s mulletted rockers belting out the most overused track in New Year and Advertising history!

Yes, its only 10 days to the Tour Ride. And don’t I know it. Having said that I had a nice spin on the bike today. Despite the gusty and ferocious wind I felt good, did a nice speed and managed the hills with comparative ease. I’m not even going to cast a cloud over it apart from the say that the implicit gloating of poor weather for a certain ToB photographer (you know who you are) came back to haunt me as the rain did damped things a little. But who cares, it was mainly sunny.

And in other news: the cameras have now come out of intensive care in the airing cupboard and seem to have made a full recovery – much to the relief of my bank account. So anyone wanting a photographer can start getting back in touch.

So, it’s now almost 9 days to go. A couple more training rides to squeeze in before the big day and plenty more thoughts to share. Tonight I received a very nice surprise but I’ll leave you waiting to hear what that was until later in the week.
